Now I was cupbearer to the king.

               Nehemiah 1. 11

(God has strategically placed

each one of us

to bring His name there

and bring Him glory.

There are no insignificant places

          or positions in His economy,

  only divinely appointed ones,

nothing below us,

nothing above us.

"I am with you.

      Trust Me in this.")

O LORD,

Help us to not belittle

   where you have appointed us,

or shy away from what

    we need Your courage,

but to magnify Your name

   in every assignment,

   every situation,

   even every difficulty.

Make us aware

     of opportunities

to bless You

               and others,

even where we

       find ourselves today.
